FBI director Christopher Wray CAVES to the House Oversight Committee as he vows to release document on Biden foreign national bribery charge
[MAIL] The FBI has caved into the House Oversight Committee's demands to release documents that claim Joe Biden was involved in a $5million bribery when he was vice president.

The agreement ends a stand off that began on May 3, when Director Christopher Wray was issued with a subpoena to hand over the document.

Wray had refused to share the unverified document with anyone except the chair of the committee, James Comer, and the ranking Democrat, Jamie Raskin.
Raskin is a known liar, and a Democrat, BIRM
Comer came out from viewing the document and said it was troubling: Raskin said it was nothing.

Comer wanted all members of the committee to be able to see the document, unredacted: Wray refused. On Monday, Comer threatened to hold him in contempt.

But on Wednesday Comer called off the vote on contempt after Wray agreed to allow the full committee to access a redacted file.

#6 Not really releasing the document.

Just making it available to the whole committee.

And, they don't see the original, just a copy with redactions.

#7 So the contempt of Congress issue was resolved by moving the redacted document closer to people that can’t tell us about it once they have seen the black piece of paper. I feel better that McCarthy has resolved this situation for by caving for a LivaSnap.
